Water Heater Leaking? Where & Why It Matters — what Woods Cross homeowners should know
Water heater leaks fall into two categories: fixable (connection, valve, T&P) and not-fixable (tank). The location of the water tells you almost immediately which it is.
Most likely causes in Woods Cross
Tank leak (corrosion failure)
Water under the heater itself, dripping from the bottom seam. Internal anode rod is exhausted, tank wall has rusted through. NOT REPAIRABLE — replacement only. Common at 8–12 years in Utah.
Most common at 8+ yearsT&P (Temperature & Pressure) relief valve discharge
The T&P valve releases water if pressure or temp exceeds safe limits. Discharge from this valve = a real safety event. Either pressure is too high (failing expansion tank or PRV) or thermostat is set too high.
CommonLoose drain valve
Bottom-front of tank has a hose-bib drain valve. Dripping = the rubber washer failed or the valve was loosened during a flush.
CommonSupply line / connection leak
Top of tank where cold-in and hot-out connect. Often a corroded copper-to-galvanized union or a loose flex connector.
CommonCondensate from high-efficiency unit
Power-vent and condensing tankless models produce condensate during operation — a thin clear puddle near the unit is normal IF there's a condensate drain line. Should be plumbed to the floor drain.
